Khan wants alexander next if no shot at 140 title.

:huh Anything above 140 and 147 or below is WW

 

Technically yes.

But why drag someone down 4lbs when you apparently intend to fight there anyway?

If khan feels comfortable at 143 fine but let the other guy come in higher.

Spent too much time around Manny.

 

I think Khan got his weight all wrong for the Diaz fight. I've seen Khan walking around bigger , surprised he only weighed in at 143. Don't think VH believes in strength and conditioning and is drilling Khan with pure technique, but his legs looked weak to me. I'm sure with some strength work he can pack on some more muscle and get closer to the 147 limit. He did not look like a welterweight on Saturday night and if he intends to fight there, he's gonna get eaten up badly.

 

Khan may actually be forced to retire at 28 if he's not careful.

 

So what if he does. The guy has made an absolute fortune, and has had a fantastic pro career. I don't like him much when he talks about boxing, but I think he's probably a decent guy surrounded by complete tools.

He's been a credit to British boxing in general, he's won multiple world titles and had a share as the best at 140. Olympic Silver medallist and is much less obnoxious than someone like Naseem Hamed, who was a genuinely scummy character and lost to the first true elite he faced.

So what if he's on the slide? He's done more than most fighters ever achieve and made for some brilliant fights. The Maidana, Peterson, Garcia and Diaz fights were fantastic fun.

 

Tbfair to brook i have never heard him say anything bad about Khan.. Whether it is about his fight record or the fighters he has fought.. He has never said anything bout him. The only thing KB has said about him is that 'he has no chin' hes never critcised him. Kell knows khan has done more things than him at the world level he isnt stupid. Why people keep on bringing up the fact that khan has done better at world level (with a better promotion i may add) when brook has never said anything about him in link to that, i dont know.. Only one thing brooks said and thats "ill rep is ed reet af" which i think he would, brook would defo beat khan.. Tko or UD for me.

 

I think saying a world-class fighter has no chin when you've been bashed around by Carson Jones is quite disrespectful. Anyway, it's not so much Brook that rankles me, it's his fans.

Apparently beating Matthew Hatton is evidence that he can handle Khan. We've no way of knowing whether Brook would survive Khan's early rounds onslaught. He's been in with such mediocrity so far.

 

:good Though not a very popular statement on this board.
I think Khan should move to L.A and train in between fights not just at camp.

 

How is it disrespectful when its the worlds most kept secret..
Everyone knows he has a glass chin and all brook done was state the obvious.. Not disrespectful imo.

 

He doesn't deserve a shot at either ....

 

Great post dft. :good

It would be hilarious if Khan did fight Alexander next. Let's face it, Brook (or his team) didn't really ****ing want it.
